Saturday, November 2, 2019


Last night I went to bed at 11:30, got up twice during the night, finally waking/getting up at 7:30.

I left the apt at 9am and took a bus to Poblado.  I made a withdrawal of 20s from my favorite ATM, picked up 2 Capital One envelopes (garbage) and my November Reader’s Digest and paid my November box rental at Envios Market.  I bought a set of 3-ring binder indexes at Office Depot and had coffee at Starbucks.  Laura sent me an acknowledgment that Teresa has an appointment next Wednesday for her Colombian passport.  I have to print that out later and make a copy of her cedula.   I was back at the apt by 11am.

I left the apt at 2pm and walked to the mall.  At Auros I printed Teresa’s passport appointment and made a copy of her cedula.  At Todo Fresa I had a cafĂ© con leche and read some from the book Juan Castro loaned me.  About an hour later I was joined by Chuck and his son-in-law Walter.  They had bought a small couch for their balcony.  We had drinks and then we walked together as far as Parva.  I bought a loaf of breakfast bread and a pastry for each of us.  They left and I walked to Exito where I bought 2 bags of milk, a Coke and a package of microwave popcorn for tomorrow’s game.
Laura sent me a photo of a dog breed – American Eskimo – that they are thinking of buying.  It’s $1,500 so they are also looking at other options.

9,560 steps today.

Joke of the day
A guy fell asleep on the beach for several hours and got horrible sunburn, specifically to his upper legs.
He went to the hospital, and was promptly admitted after being diagnosed with second-degree burns.
With his skin already starting to blister, and the severe pain he was in, the doctor prescribed continuous intravenous feeding with saline, electrolytes, a sedative, and a Viagra pill every four hours. 
The nurse, who was rather astounded, asked, "What good will Viagra do for him, Doctor?" 
The doctor replied, "It won't do anything for his condition, but it'll keep the sheets off his legs."
